The Kleber Quadraxer 3 and the Kumho HA32 Solus 4S are both all-round tyres from reputable manufacturers Kleber and Kumho respectively. As per our ratings, Kleber Quadraxer 3 holds a higher position with a score of 90 out of 100, while the Kumho HA32 Solus 4S stands at 73 out of 100.
The Kleber Quadraxer 3, made in Poland, is an improved version of the Kleber Quadraxer 2. According to multiple tests by Autobild, it exhibits strengths such as excellent dry braking, superior comfort, and effective snow braking. However, it has a few known weaknesses like delayed steering response and understeering wet handling. Despite these, it achieved a respectable 4th position among 15 tyres tested.
In comparison, the Kumho HA32 Solus 4S from China, shows noteworthy merits such as low exterior noise and competent snow braking. It also offers good snow traction and safe dry and wet handling according to Autobild 2023. Nevertheless, its shortcomings such as weak aquaplaning reserves, slightly increased dry and wet braking distances, and elevated rolling resistance bring down its rating. Still, it managed a commendable 5th position in the same test against 15 competitors.
The Kleber Quadraxer 3 excels in providing good performance on snowy and dry tracks, assured aquaplaning attributes and short dry braking distances. However, it fell short in terms of steering response and understeering wet handling. In contrast, the Kumho HA32 Solus 4S impresses with its good snow traction, safe wet and dry handling, and quiet ride. However, it’s a bit lacking in aquaplaning reserves, features mildly extended wet/dry braking distances and has a higher rolling resistance.
Verdict: Overall, both tyres have their own strengths and weaknesses. The Kleber Quadraxer 3 outperforms the Kumho HA32 Solus 4S in our ratings and in test positions. However, the Kumho HA32 Solus 4S stands out with its more balanced performance and lower exterior noise. Therefore, your choice depends primarily on what aspects you prioritize - if you often drive in wintry conditions, Kleber Quadraxer 3 might be a better choice whereas, for a quieter and balanced overall ride, the Kumho HA32 Solus 4S could be your pick.
